Book
readers and TV show viewers alike are debating whether Kit Harrington’s beloved
character in Game of Thrones, Jon Snow, survived the season finale or not.
Whatever Snow’s fate may be, one thing is for sure: Kit Harrington’s roads will inevitably crossed paths again with Carice van Houten’s, the Dutch actress who
plays Lady Melissandre, the priestess of the God of Light in Game of Thrones.

Kit
Harrington is reportedly replacing Robert Pattinson (Harry Potter, Twilight),
who suddenly left the movie, Brimstone, for unknown reasons. Brimstone is an
upcoming western thriller that tells the story of a girl named Liz (played by
Dakota Fanning) who is being chased by the vengeful Preacher (played by Guy
Pearce). The movie’s official website describes the plot as a survival tale in
the cruel American Wild West, and an epic story about one woman’s defiant
resistance.

Along with
Harrington, Paul Anderson (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows), Jack Roth (The
Great Train Robbery) and Carla Juri (Wetlands) also joined the cast, although
there’s not much information about their characters yet. Harrington will play
a guy named Samuel, who at first glance seems to be a potential love interest for
Liz, while Carice van Houten will appear as a woman called Anna.

Principal
photography has just begun, and the shootings will take place in Romania, Spain
and Germany. Brimstone is directed by Martin Koolhoven, whose last movie,
Winter in Wartime, came out back in 2008.

Right after
the season finale of Game of Thrones ended with a shocking twist, Kit
Harrington answered a couple of questions in which he emphasized that he would
be focusing on movies in the near future, since his character is no longer
needed in the show. Of course everyone took his words with a grain of salt,
especially after he was seen in Belfast, where Game of Thrones used to shoot
the scenes for the Wall.

Now that he
is leaving Northern Ireland behind to be reunited with ‘Lady Melissandre’
on the set of Brimstone, fans can continue to create theories about how Jon
Snow could have survived the betrayal of his brothers of the Watch. Maybe the
actor and actress can come up with something brand new that the creators, David
Benioff and D.B. Weiss, will be fond of, and change their mind about the fate
of the bastard son of the Ned Stark.
